*CAS167 TLC374 Big Cat

Photo Details

Poster: hobbydujour

For CAS, Jen gave us the theme of "At the Zoo". I took it literally and made a "cage" for the tiger.

Holly, in today's TLC, asked that we use things that are relatively "vintage" to card-making. Since I have not been doing this as long as some here on SCS, I used some of her suggestions. This is an old PSX image...don't believe that company has been around for awhile.

Very clever, Sallie! I love that you used textured CS in a vivid color to pair up with your twine & eyelet cage.

Eyelets would be a vintage supply since they aren't used nearly as much as they were when I first started stamping "many moons ago". Love the creative caged effect you added to this card!

Argh I remember when eyelets were the hot new thing...lord, I predate EYELETS. Love the PSX image, I still miss that company. Very clever use of twine and eyelets for the cage!
